About this album

PHASE 77: Courtroom Drama is a 21-song album from NEXT, released in 2023. It's electronic and atmospheres, dark, mysterious and tense, built on percussion, synth and bass. The songs run 86 to 160 BPM, in keys like E minor, C minor and D minor, and they're all instrumental. It's a natural fit for trailers, film and documentary work, TV and news promos and sports. Every song comes with stems (pulses, strings and drones) and alternate mixes, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
